Our open concept brewery & taproom may boast over 25 TV’s, 20 taps, and a wide array of accessible seating, but nothing stands out more than our bar area. Reclaimed from a 250-year-old Oak Tree, it once provided shade and comfort to all those who visited “Paradise Grove” when Hiram Walker built the Detroit-Lake Erie Railway during the 1890s. Today its legacy lives on by bringing locals together and nourishing our community.
It’s like The Beer Store, but better! And local! And colder! Walk right in and discover the loads of beer we have available. Aside from beer, we have an array of local goods, in-house provisions and merchandise that is designed in-house and printed locally! You can also order online for pick-up, and we’ll have it ready for you! That is, if you hate the cold that much.
Local talent at its finest. Our massive exterior mural was executed by renowned street artist DERKZ. It showcases characters that are featured on our label artwork, each highlighting a unique historical story about Kingsville. Inside you will find murals crafted by Essex County legend David Creed, who has essentially reimaged his original piece that was designed at our prior establishment.
The ones that started it all. Littered with muli-award-winning beers, the Brewmaster Series is available year-round. Being recognized both provincially and nationally has helped carry this brewery to what it is today. This lineup of beers pays homage to our roots; the original stories of our hometown and the people who helped shape it.
Island Style Hard Seltzers is a series that celebrates a part of Essex County that’s very dear to our heart: Pelee Island. Exploring the southernmost parts of Canada will lead you to paradise. Head south to Pelee, drop an anchor and get a taste of the island life with our extremely clean hard seltzer.
Town Tango is a small batch series where local collaboration meets beverage innovation! We’ve sat down with some of our favourite Kingsville businesses to create unique beers celebrating who they are and their positive impact on our community. These are people making strives in our community, helping build a vibrant identity for our growing town. It may take two to tango, but a community to keep the party alive.
We do staff highlights a little differently around here. Staff Craft is an experimental series that features the humans here at the brewery. For these small batches, our senior management sits down with team members to help design the beer of their dreams. The result is a beverage as unique as the people we work with.
This “one and done” series aimed to highlight Windsor/Essex’s music scene during a time where hosting live music has become tricky. During the pandemic, local artists needed our collective support. Each beer in the series payed homage to a local musician, and we encouraged buyers a listen, recommend them to a friend, and consider purchasing any merch they had available.
Seasonal Brews are large-batch beers crafted to align with one of our four seasons. Each of these beers highlight a historical or cultural story about our region and sometimes brewed with local seasonal ingredients!
These are Town Tangos that have graduated to seasonal status! The Nostalgic Tour include beverages that are inspired by our childhood palate; Colasanti’s Donut Beer, Dairy Freez Boston Cooler Ale, and Lakside Packing Thrill Pickle Dill Sour. Only available during certain points in the year with the potential to sell out in minutes, make sure to have a game plan when trying to get your hands on these cans!
Your Face Beer is a just-for-fun contest where the public votes to put someone’s face on a beer can! It can be you, your neighbour, your cat, your professor from college, or even some dude at work who grabs coffees for the team from time to time. If you think they deserve to be on a can of beer, then nominate them! Kicks off every February.
These are staple items on our main menu that aren’t going anywhere. Dishes like our El Diablo burger, Detroit-style pizza and regionally famous panko-crusted Lake Erie Perch Tacos are just a few classics that are at the core of our offerings.
Seasons change and so do some of our dishes. It’s an opportunity to celebrate the creativity in our kitchen. From harvest season to vacation inspirations, we’re constantly fusing together ideas to create unique plates. Dishes like Bangers and Mac, Chimichurri Bowls, and Boneless Jerk Chicken Wings to name a few.
There’s always something to celebrate here at the brewery! From Cinco de Mayo to International Women’s Day, we strive to create limited-time weekend menus to toast all occasions. Keep an eye on our social media for these specialty offerings!
It’s impossible to find a better party in the county on St. Paddy’s Day. A proper Celtic banger, Dublin Calling is an indoor and outdoor event that boasts a full Irish menu, festive beverages, live music, bagpipes, limited-run merch and hella-good vibes.
Brewmaster Dinners are seasonal events where we celebrate our kitchen’s creativity and the Essex County community! The event provides a multi-course meal that is carefully paired with our craft beers. Our brewer will be present to talk you through the pairings and explain the different beer styles. You will slowly dine while enjoying conversation with friends or family and feel comforted by the good beer, food and vibes that surround you. We want you to walk away feeling full and connected.
Supporting the local music scene is, and forever will be, a huge part of our identity. Featuring familiar and new talent throughout the region, you can expect everything from classic covers to creative originals. We host live music every Saturday in the late afternoon – follow our socials for the weekly schedule!
